New week - new perspective some say... It is good to update and refresh our thoughts on Bitcoin after a weekend, so that we can consolidate and confirm our analysis from the week before, to keep our eyes sharp, and make sure we fully understand what is going on in the Cryptocurrency markets in realtime. To best make an accurate an analysis, it's best to clear the mind totally, ignore all emotion and reservations you have about any Cryptocurrencies and simply look at the chart with a clear mind. If you do this, you are now trading what you see, and not what you think. The amount of comments I receive saying, for example: "Bitcoin is going to 3k" is surprising. It surprises me that many traders have this predisposed opinion on Bitcoin, expecting it to lose half of it's value and not even trading it during this time, thus losing even more, getting frustrated, realize they're not making money, then trade lots to make something so they feel better, then lose... And then blame market manipulation for their bad moves/decisions. This is a common cycle, especially amongst inexperienced traders, and is so avoidable. Trade withan open mind always.
Swiftly moving on, let's analyze BTC/USD on the 4 hour chart in realtime. As it stands, Bitcoin is trading at 6790 and 6910, which is right at the long term horizontal resistance zone. Since price hit here, price has gently been moving to the downside, with candlesticks showing weakness in the short term. As it stands, I don't think the upside is going to immediately happen. I believe that price needs to at least have some form of downside correction before the upward move. Just because market needs to go down before a new buy, this is not bad news. there is some very interesting support below which price will almost certainly bounce off of.
There is many support levels that are looming just below Bitcoins current price. There is 1) 20 moving average support at 6640... 2) 200 major moving average support at 6600... 3) 50 moving average at 6570... 4) Side-wards support, also at 6600. It is further likely that Bitcoin will stop at these prices and rally because the moving averages are all almost converged. This means that Bitcoin has a huge support floor to break through and it is extremely unlikely to manage to do so simply because there is so many supports in the exact same place. When price bounces within this zone, it is a great time to watch Bitcoin carefully for a buy opportunity.
Bear in mind that price could stop at just about any of the above levels. There isn't one that is especially favorable so to speak, but naturally, getting price down to the side-wards support before the up move would be the best one. Why? Simply because price has then hit EVERY moving average as a support and also a side-wards support line has been hit, meaning there is 4 huge support levels here. The more supports we can hit, the better, naturally.
I will continue to update this idea in realtime if this idea receives enough likes/attention.
